\u2026and today is mine.<\/p>\n

It is customary to start a new blog with an introduction, so let me begin.\u00a0My name is Carlton Nettleton and I live in San Diego, CA.\u00a0I have lived in San Diego since 1995, not counting the 11 months I spent in Texas working for Exxon.\u00a0I have a master\u2019s degree in Geological Sciences and studied the\u00a0Valles Caldera\u00a0in Northern New Mexico as my research project.\u00a0For the past eight years I have been writing software in a variety of organizations and have a real passion for delivering high quality software projects.\u00a0My main area of expertise is how teams can use the various Agile software development techniques and practices when they are having trouble meeting their commitments, improving their quality and\\or innovating.\u00a0The more I do this, the more I realize that many of these problems stem from poor communication, lack of ownership and inability to reconcile conflicting priorities.<\/p>\n

As for other interests, which you may hear them about from time-to-time, I tend to have omnivorous interests.\u00a0I love to cook interesting and elaborate meals for my family.\u00a0The latest thing I cooked that was a big hit was smoked salmons crepes with a dill, caper and cream cheese spread.\u00a0I love to travel and see new places; Spain being my favorite place to visit with Brazil coming in a close second.\u00a0As for sports, I am a fan of\u00a0tennis<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0rugby<\/a>.\u00a0This is rather unfortunate since neither of these sports are covered very much in the US.\u00a0My taste in music is confined to techno (mostly trance and chill music), classical and opera.\u00a0I really don\u2019t like much else.\u00a0Finally, the uber-geek in me enjoys\u00a0Battlestar Galatica<\/a>, playing Lord of the Rings Online and geeky games like\u00a0Settlers of Catan!\u00a0Oi vey!<\/p>\n

Stay in touch and come back soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
